IMPACT Designer Bundles

Impact is the system of choice for a growing number of the world's leading packaging and display manufacturers who understand that the key to a successful structural design is differentiation and innovation. Packaging and POS displays need to communicate the brand owner's message effectively, which is why Impact bundles come complete with the packaging industry's most automated and powerful features for structural design, product development and virtual 3D sampling. Together, these features provide designers with all the tools they need to deliver creative solutions that meet the combined demands of structure, product and environment perfectly.

Impact features a set of fully interactive drawing tools as well as a wide range of reusable design components, which make the creation of custom drawings much faster than with any other packaging design software. Impact design components are parametrically driven and feature built-in intelligence, which includes the ability to automatically re-size when positioned.

Large and comprehensive libraries of pre-programmed, re-usable parametric design styles are also included to enable speedy drawing and sample turn-around. Impact standard libraries include corrugated (FEFCO), folding carton (ECMA), POS display, rigid paper composite and media wallet variations.

Impact's automatic layout feature is capable of calculating one, or multiple interlocking nesting patterns simultaneously to ensure maximum production efficiency and minimal material waste. This feature keeps track of material type and flute/grain direction to ensure that packaging designs maintain the correct orientation when added to a sheet.

Structural design is as much about experimentations as it is imagination. Impact's powerful 3D features enable users to combine both. 2D to 3D conversion is quick & easy and Impact's advanced technology allows the production of realistic 3D prototypes.

Impact supports the importing of a wide range of industry standard 3D solid objects, the creation of custom 3D product shapes, and the production of video animations.
